Basement Waterproofing - This picture shows why trying to seal out the water is a losing battle

Many homeowners ask why you can't just seal out the water entirely. The answer is that it just doesn't work. This is an attempt to seal the water out that didn't work, if it had worked the homeowner probably wouldn't have called DryZone. The trick is to relieve the pressure and let the water go some place that you want it to go.
